Even sign changes on the Markoff surface #

Changing the signs of exactly two coordinates preserves the Markoff equation. The four transformations form a Klein four-group. Vieta involutions commute with them, and coordinate transpositions permute them. Thus Gamma normalizes the even-sign subgroup.

The four sign vectors with product one.
